Mounting Tape
As described, tape can be mounted either by
adhesive tape backing, or by channel. In some
cases, we require channel mounting for proper heat
dissipation.
Dust will hamper adhesion. Wear
protection, do not breathe in fumes. Clean all
surfaces throroughly. Fig. 1.
The following strips
require mounting in channel.
LTR-P 4.5W Series - 16’ max.
LTR-P 5.8W Series - 16’-4” max.
LTR-S 5.8W Series - 16’-4” max.
Peel back adhesive 1/2” to expose back of tape.
You are now ready for attaching a connector

If you’re at the end of your run, you’re done.
Using Mounting Channels
We offer a complete line of architectural quality alu-
minum extruded mounting channels and lenses in
both 4’ and 8’ lengths. In measuring out a channel
for your installation, take note that not all channels
accept connectors within them. Best to make your
connections outside of the channel.
Cut channels
with the lens fitting down to avoid shattering
.
Cut channel using a metal blade in a circular saw or
with a hacksaw. Make sure you observe all proper
safety precautions and wear protective goggles.
If using a hacksaw, insure that channel is tightly
clamped to work bench.

Mount channels using counter sunk screws. Sink
screw every 12” along length of channel.
Fig. 4.
Lay tape in using adhesive backing to adhere tape
to channel. Press firmly along length of tape. Do
not apply a roller to tape as this may damage
diodes.
Fig. 5.
Snap lens into channel, working from one end to
the other. Lens will seat into channel with an
audible snapping sound.
